Around half of the train services serving Nur-Sultan call at Nur Sultan Nurly Zhol. Most of these services originate/terminate here, rather than "through" services as this is a terminal station. Almost all Talgo services that serve Nur-Sultan use this station. A handful of services call at both Nur-Sultan-1 and Nur-Sultan-Nurly Zhol.
